Spring is here and that means walk and run season is in high gear! Please note that we are moving forward with in person events following all CDC and Department of Health guidelines. Currently, outdoor events have a capacity of 200 people with safety protocols in place, including temperature checks, masks required, and hand sanitizer to be available. We are also providing a virtual option for those that prefer to do the walks and runs on their own. These events are an important part of our fundraising each year so whether you join us in person or virtually, know that you are making a difference for those in the community living with kidney disease!
